F1 V12 Start Engine Sound Compilation (HONDA, FERRARI, LOTUS,...) 

I am 71 years old and in the time I have watched racing in person, there is NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING that compares to a V12 engine at full song on the track. I can remember, as if it were yesterday the sound of 2 Ferrari Tests Rosa's and a Maserati running withing a few feet of each other, full on throttle at full speed. There are simply few machines racing today that can ever match this sound! Thanks for this!

Ohh that Honda sound, it definitely has soul.

Living in close proximity to both Watkins Glen and Montreal, we started going to F1 races back in the mid 70's and had the good fortune to see and hear these amazing creations in full anger when they were state of the art! Hanging around in the garage on Saturday night at Watkins Glen was a highlight of the weekend. Everything was open back then and there were always drivers and team members to chat with. Standing by the guardrail during practice and the race, it was a real thrill to see, hear, feel and smell the cars scream by. So glad we had the chance to experience this. It was a different time. Thanks for the video.

Ohh God. This music deserves billboard top 100 of all time

How can we claim the world is better now without this in our lives?

Every time I hear a V-12 going through the gears it puts a huge smile on my face......and sometimes a tear or two of joy.

When I heard them driving through London they sounded like dinosaurs screaming and roaring. It was epic.

1:13 to 2:30 brings back memories. A real formula 1 masterpiece.

This takes me back to my childhood watching these machines racing around Adelaide, Australia. The sound of them flying down Brabham Straight at full noise was something to behold.

2:50 that’s some mad revving from a V12

Quando os pilotos lutavam pela vitória e para se manter vivo, isso sim foi a era de ouro da F1

Mp4 McLaren sound... Seems like crying searching his master senna

What sweet sounds, I love to listen to this first thing in the morning! Wish I had one in my garage that I could just start and rev a few times a week.

This is one of the best videos I've seen in this category. Bravo.

I love the sound of the f1 cars back in the day 70's to the 90's

I remember being at Watkins Glen in the late 70’s listening to the songs of so many 12 cylinder engines (Ferrari, Alfa, Maserati, Matra, I might have left one out), and of course the v8 Cosworth. Driven by hand, too.

My first race was 198...7? i was 10 YO, my dad took me to the Long beach GP...the sounds of those engines absolutely blew me away as they flew by. I was hooked...since since them i have been an ardent F1 fan. The sound of the motor, that's what does it for me man.

*McLaren Honda MP 4/6 RA 121E 3.5 V12... Ayrton Senna says: GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO and GO...*

The past F1 cars sounded so much better than 2020 F1 cars.

La época Dorada de la F1, esos si eran motores, una delicia volver a escucharlos.

That is real beauty!! Sweet music.

Just love the slack in the Lotus accelerator cable. Pedal to engine, no black boxes.

OLD CARS ARE THE BEST

MCLAREN MP4/ pra mim o carro mais bonito da F1 de todos os tempos... Designe simples e objetivo que lembra um F14 Tomcat.

De arrepiar, este motor Honda é magnífico!

I remember watching the Ferrari V12s at silverstone back in the early 90’s at a time when everyone else had gone to v10s (or was it v8’s?). You could hear the Ferrari v12 a mile off, the noise was incredible. When F1 was F1

Blast from the past - amazing sound! Sadly cannot be heard around F1 track anymore :(

Isso sim é que é um barulho de um carro de F1 de verdade!

The dip of the nose on that MATRA on upshift. Love it!

Super .Multumesc Ai facut noaptea zi.

The Alfa sounds so pure and stable... lovely. Matra v12 sounds like a beast, the son of an american v8 with the design of an european formula engine. The Ferrari is just one of the most beutiful sounding v12's... high pitched but also calm. Honda RA121E... The most iconic f1 sound. Just beautiful. The Lotus Lamborghini is just awesome. That deep, terrifying and powerful sound makes it unique. Maserati Tipo 10... You know...it special. Not the most high-revving or loud, but the tone and the popping on idle is very cool.

Ferrari will forever be the kings of the V12, but the Alfa was incredible too

Esos si eran coches F1 con v12, eso si era auténtico

That Honda engine is barking 🐕 i love it

I love HONDA V10. Its best sound ever.

El sonido del V12 es música para mis oídos. Talvés no giraba tan alto de rpm como el V10, pero tenía ésa nota de escape que lo hacía único y hermoso

Honda starter sound is nice, smooth. 😉

waw that was great thx i love those cars

The MP4/5 V10 was the best F1 motor Honda ever built, Honda said that not me. Because Senna drove it, it was also a big favorite.

Great sounds!

Damn goosebumps and tear in my eye :,)

Oh the good old days ;)

It is interesting how on a road car a wing or spoiler can be somewhat fragile or flimsy but an f1 car can be pushed around by the wing and withstand a ton of downforce. Those wings look so easy to break.

O barulho da Ferrari é ímpar!! I Love you Ferrari

Todos são fantásticos chega arrepia o ronco

Incredible sounds!

F1 V12 engine is sound of magic

isso que é som para meus ouvidos...

that Sounds verry nice... thats F1.

I was riding a AMG 6L V12 bi-turbo - it was a blast

That put some lust in my heart.

We need this back in f1

V12!!! I love them...

This is music for my ears. Pure V12 all power of engines

Sounds like its living organism . Love it

Music to my ears.

I love how the older the cars, the prettier the work.... There was a sense of just style to go with the functionality. Nowadays everything takes second seat to efficiency.

that dude at 4:04 inches away from the exhaust without ear protection: legend!

Época de ouro , jamais voltará , fantástico

Man that honda sound :)

Glorious. Lambo sounds best to me. Its like Diablo tho wow

The lamborghini sound is just epic

The Lamborghini V12 sounded amazing

I attended 2 of the U.S. Grands Prix in Phoenix. My ears are STILL ringing from the sound of those wailing engines echoing off the downtown buildings. No current crewmen miss the sound - they were all going deaf.

Imagine a V12 with DRS and KERS

I went to Watkins Glen 1977-1980. There was nothing like the sound of the Matra V12 coming through the woods on Friday and Saturday practice.

Amazing video

Isso música pro meus ouvidos som lindoooo 👏👏👌

Really miss the V12 era the cars were beasts.

OMG, those V - 12 s were savage .

Very good thanks you so much.

O verdadeiro som de um F1.

Esse dom é Rock in roll yehhh 😎

Don t hear the people dislike that sound? Its amazing! Thanks to post

When F1 was worth watching

Que saudade desses motores na fórmula 1

The Matra MS11 at the end sounds FILTHY boy!!! ❤️❤️❤️

That Honda was singing !

First The real F1 engine sound, legend of sound

Saudades da parceria Honda/Mc Laren/Senna Esse motor V-12 da Honda era imbatível

F1 Raiz. Saudades do ronco desses motores....

O som do MP4/6 é inacreditável. Era assim que a F1 devia continuar sendo.

Man that thing(V12) really GROWLS when started up!

QUE SAUDADES DO VERDADEIRO E ÚNICO SOM DA FORMULA 1!!!

0:10 wow that moustache just screams money (right corner)

amazing and exploshioning sound what a best video🤩🤩

Crying.. such beautiful sounds..

Nice 音！

V12 twin turbo with KERS and Active Aerodynamics and suspension and suction fan, that would be perfect..

That F1 sound 👍

Yes! This is good.

Eu vi e Ouvi todos eles ao vivo... sem palavras. Uma vez fiquei uns 30 dias com o ouvido apitando por causa do ronco de um F1 kkkkk

The last one was Ferrari F40 lm. Start at 5 47

I could hear that Honda all day Rev Rev Rev all day and I'd still be sitting there with dumb fuckin grin on my face I currently have writing this. Music made from fire .. beautiful.

Pure sound of master piece

That McLaren is porn.

2:46 lamborghini-lotus revs,revs and revs lol

Lol I like how the older mechanic was like: "just let me do it young man, out the way"

WOW! it's raw! free exhaust and anyone is wearing earplug or other protection
